The MIT Center for Materials Science and Engineering is devoted to the
design, creation, and fundamental understanding of materials that are capable
of enhancing the human experience.

CMSE has a special mission: to foster collaborative, interdisciplinary research
and education in the science and engineering of materials that will address
the future needs of society. CMSE promotes collaboration among MIT faculty
and between MIT faculty and researchers of other universities, industry,
and government laboratories.

Spotlights:

CMSE sponsors a live global event where CMSE Research Specialist, Felice Frankel, conducted a one-hour online conversation on cover art and graphics for science and engineering publications with Kelly Krause, Art Director of Nature magazine as part of Frankel's online course, âMaking Science and Engineering Pictures, A Practical Guide to Presenting Your Workâ. See a recording of the event here.

We're excited to announce CMSE researcher, Prof. Robert Cohen, has won the Paul J. Flory Polymer Education Award and will be presented with this honor at the Spring ACS meeting. This award is to recognize, encourage, and stimulate outstanding achievements by an individual or team in promoting undergraduate and/or graduate polymer education. Congratulations Prof. Cohen!Read more...
